Pregnant after a Loss

Just a vent...

But lately it seems like a TON of girls that I went to high school/college with are pregnant (which is not what I'm venting about). ?However, it seems like the second they find out they put it up on FB. ?I think I'm just jealous that they have that innocence still - that everything will be okay and that pregnancy is exciting (which it is, but also scary for a lot of us, I think). ?

I hope this isn't coming off as b*tchy - I just feel like I want to shake these girls sometimes and ask them if they know how hard it is to "untell" people. ?I sincerely hope that none of them ever EVER have to do that though. ?

Vent over. ??

  • I hear ya.  I get really jealous of people, even my closest friends, who have successful pregnancies and I have to live in fear everyday.  I try my best to keep thinking "Today I am pregnant and I love my baby" everyday!

  • I've had that thought too. We waited until 9 or 10 weeks our first pg to fb announce, and I still had to unannounce it. This time, we're holding off until we are past the 13 wk mark, which is when we mc'd the last time.

  • A friend of mine did this a few months back, and it almost immediately ended in miscarriage. Then she did it AGAIN when she got KU again! I was shocked. Whatever though. Now that I'm finally KU again I can see how hard it is to not say anything because I'm so excited.

  • I hear ya on this one... people think a positive pregnancy test means they should tell the world not even thinking about what could go wrong.

    Oh I was so excited - I literally wanted to tell the world. ?But I think I'm just emotionally scarred. ?And I saw one FB friend lose a baby after she put up a bunch of statuses and my heart just broke for her! ??

  • I get the same way.  I am friends with a LOT of girls that recently got pregnant.  One of which announced to FB at 4 weeks!  Although happy for her, I was really bitter.  I AM jealous of the innocence that others have.
